A new five-home development has been approved in Nantwich, set to be used as assisted living for adults with learning difficulties.

On Wednesday 22 May, Cheshire East Council approved a planning application for a residential development, on land off Blackberry Close.

Applicant, Mr Phil Stockton, of P&N Homes, will construct four semi-detached bungalows and one detached bungalow.

The five one-bedroom bungalows will include a staff office/amenity building to the rear of the site, as part of the assisted living development (Cheshire East Planning).

These one-bedroom bungalows will also include a staff office/amenity building to the rear of the site, as part of the assisted living development.

The Nantwich homes will be served by nine car parking spaces, complying with Cheshire East Council parking standards.

With a height of approximately 4.8 metres, the new bungalows will have a similar sized footprint to the existing surrounding houses along Blackberry Close.

A Cheshire East planning officer said: "The proposed development will not have an adverse impact upon neighbouring amenity.
